Product Information

Full details

The Kookaburra Burst Shin Sleeves are designed for athletes of all levels who require extra comfort and hygiene when wearing shin guards. By providing a soft, moisture-wicking barrier between the skin and protective equipment, these sleeves significantly reduce chafing and irritation caused by sweat and friction. While they offer excellent skin protection during intense training or matches, users should note that they are intended as an under-layer and do not provide impact protection themselves.

FAQs

Are these shin sleeves machine washable?

Yes, they are made from polyester and can be machine washed. We recommend using a cold, gentle cycle and air drying to ensure longevity.

Do these sleeves provide impact protection?

No, these are comfort layers intended to prevent chafing and manage moisture. They do not contain padding and should be worn under your standard shin guards.

Can I wear these for sports other than hockey?

Absolutely. They are suitable for any sport that requires wearing shin guards, including soccer, kickboxing, and various contact sports.

Will these make my legs too hot?

The sleeves are made from a breathable, lightweight polyester designed to wick sweat away, which typically helps keep the skin cooler than if the shin guards were against the skin directly.

How do I choose the right size?

The sleeves are designed with a flexible, unisex fit that conforms to most leg shapes. Ensure a snug fit that does not restrict circulation.

Troubleshooting

Sleeves are sliding down during play

Ensure you are using the correct size and that your socks are tight enough to provide an extra layer of compression over the sleeve.

Material feels damp or heavy after play

This is normal for moisture-wicking gear. Immediately remove the sleeves after your activity and air dry them to ensure they are ready for the next session.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Breathable material keeps legs cooler during play

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To use the Kookaburra Burst Shin Sleeves, pull them over the lower leg until they fit snugly against the skin, ensuring the seams are aligned to avoid pressure points. They are compatible with virtually all standard shin guard styles, including slip-in, ankle-wrap, and hard-shell models. For maintenance, it is recommended to machine wash the sleeves after every use to prevent the buildup of sweat and bacteria. Use a gentle cycle with cold water and air dry them to preserve the integrity of the breathable polyester fibers.
